The text includes "Mission Impossible"-ish music, quotes from Pelosi claiming the CIA misled her and the accusation that "Pelosi's crowd" blocked a probe into her claims — a reference to the GOP procedural motion Democrats killed earlier this month that would have established a select subcommittee to investigate the speaker's allegations.

It's kinda funny how as soon as Pelosi comes under fire for her lies she jets off to a communist country to hide.
Very fitting in my opinion, says alot about her, too bad she doesn't stay in China but I'm sure they want her gone ASAP.

Pelosi told the truth about the CIA under the "domination" of the Bush WH. The Bushies believed in the imperial presidency and dismissed the Balance of Power concept in the constitution as to demanding. The GOP established an economic aristocracy during its tenure in keeping with its founding goals to support business.
Pelosi does not have to prove anything. There is enough real information out there that her story is plausible. The GOP, the party of NO is a hollow shell of its former powerful self.

Good for the GOP...fighting fire with fire! These devious Democratzi have been fighting dirty for years...lying and spinning and lying and spinning...despicable! Keep it up! NOW WE NEED SOMEONE IN THE GOVERNMENT WITH 'BACKBONE' TO ASK FOR THAT 'ORIGINAL' BIRTH CERTIFICATE THAT PROVES HE IS A KENYAN CITIZEN...LIKE HIS BLACK KENYAN GRANDMOTHER CLAIMS...AND NOT A LEGAL AND QUALIFIED CITIZEN OF THE GREAT NATION WE LIVE IN!

I understand Republicans using distortions and spin about Speaker Pelosi to excite their base. Although, she?s probably not amused, I wouldn?t be surprised to learn she is not particularly bothered. It's just sad that the Republicans don't seem to think they can win if they talk straight about real issues.
Although far from perfect, she is an enthusiastic patriot and is doing a terrific job. ~ Miami http://rallbritton.blogspot.com

Carmank, I'm still up in the air concerning Pelosi's remarks, so I would really appreciate you supplying me with your evidence that "Pelosi told the truth about the CIA." You obviously have some concrete proof to make such a definitive statement, so please share with us and the Government.

CarmanK - the GOP is the party of KNOW, not NO. Get the spelling right.
So you recognize that there is some form of balance of power, this whole imperial notion. Please tell me then how you think old Barry is doing in that whole "balance" and lack of imperiality thing? Buying up car companies and turning them over to the unions. Let's start there...GOP death is being reported in the papers so it must be true, right?!? Fool - the media thinks by saying we're on our way out that they can make it happen so Barry, Nance and Harry can continue our march to the far left. I am actually seeing MORE conservatives come out of the woodwork these days, not less.

The GOP could save their money and just allow Pelosi to hang herself. Just like Biden, "SHE JUST CAN'T HELP IT". In recent weeks -- before the CIA debacle -- she seemed to become more and more like a spaced out looney tune!

All this pathetic campaign will do is continue to excite their base while keeping the irons hot for an investigation. Pelosi is tough and will ride it out while the real criminals (Cheney included) will sweat going to jail.
All along the Bush administration had the option of changing the law but chose to ignore it or have it "restated" thinking they were right. Wrong.

Once again the GOP leadership shows that it's so myopic around what its "base" thinks that they fail to recognize that no one outside their hopped-up "base" cares one way or another about the Speaker...much less that they'd be influenced by an attack ad trying to tie their own Representative to her. (Case in point: how many voters were influenced in their home district races because of Denny Hastert?) This is just another ill-thought-out failed attempt at going negative by the minority party..

There are those defending Pilosi for not objecting to the proposed interrogation but whining about Rep and Dem realizing she doen't have a clue. Yes there were liberals who defended Son of Sam because he was sick. These are the same people who defend Kim Jung Il and Hitler psychos.

Seems like every one is on their knees to Pelosi. For some reason they are afraid of her and think their careeres are gone unless the bow to this W----. I would like to see her jump on her broom and fly off into the sunset right off the west coast. Then maybe people in the House and Senate will get some guts and backbone back when they realize they don't need her. Let her husband put up with her.

Why do we keep on this Pelosi vs CIA thing?? We know she lied, we have proof that she lied. Even the DummyCRAPS can't even hide that she lied.. Start the proceedings to get her LYING butt outta Congress, NOW!! BTW It would be great to have her come back from her "Mission" with NO job.. HINT!!

Notice to all libs, it is time to get back to a 2 party system. It was not good when conservatives were in charge and it may be worse since the far left is in charge. Next year vote for a balance to this one sided side show.

I find it interesting that the Republican have now picked on TWO WOMEN....................
GET IT THE REPUBLICAN PARTY WHO DEFEATED THE INITIAL LILLY LEDBETTER "EQUAL PAY BILL' REFUSING TO GIVE WOMEN IN AMERICA EQUAL PAY HAVE NOW PICKED OFF TWO WOMEN TO CAST OUT OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND THE CONGRESS
EVEN SOUND MINDED MEN SHOULD BE WORRIED ABOUT THIS. MEN YOU HAVE WIVES AND GIRLFRIENDS, MOTHERS, DAUGHTERS, NEICES, COUSINS THAT ARE FEMALE
WOMEN WORK AS HARD AND EVEN HARDER THAN MEN IN MOST CASES BECAUSE OF THE SEXISM IN OUR SYSTEM'
MEN YOUR LADIES ARE WORKING THE SAME JOBS DOING THE EXACT SAME WORK, GETTING 75% IF THEY ARE WHITE 65% IF BLACK AND 55% IF HISPANIC VS. MEN GETTING 100%.
DO YOU REALLY THINK THIS IS FAIR? YOUR HOUSEHOLD IS GETTING SIGNIFICANTLY LESS AND YOUR WOMEN ARE WORKING THE SAME AS MEN
THAT MEANS LESS MONEY COMING IN TO PAY FOR THINGS YOUR FAMILY NEEDS SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY ARE WOMEN
I TAKE ISSUE BECAUSE WHEN MINE WORKS I WANT HER TO BE TREATED FAIRLY INCLUDING PAID THE SAME AS MEN.
PRESIDENT OBAMA AND THE DEMS PASSED THE LAW AND REVERSED THE REPUBLICANS WHO DEFEATED THE BILL
MEN HOW CAN YOU SUPPORT AND RESPECT REPUBLICANS WHO TREAT YOU WOMEN SO POORLY AND DISMISS THEM AS "NOT EQUAL, AFFIRMATIVE ACTION, NOT SMART ENOUGH, SIMPLY HOW DO YOU SUPPORT THE REPUBLICAN PARTY?
PICKING ON WOMEN MY MOTHER TAUGHT ME IS CLEARLY WRONG. SEEMS THE REPUBLICANS FORGET THAT THEY HAVE MOTHERS, DAUGHTERS AS WELL HOWEVER, I BETCHA THEY ARE GETTING EQUAL PAY JUST NOT YOUR WOMEN.
SO PIKING ON NANCY PELOSIE AND SOTOMAYOR SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY ARE WOMEN AND BECAUSE THEY THINK THEY CAN, THE REPUBLICANS, THAT'S UNACCEPTABLE TO ME AND MILLIONS OF MEN LIKE MYSELF.

It's time to send a message to the GOP/Republican Party That Women aren't going to take them Belitting Women any more.
If Our Men Won't stand up then we will, we will line the streets of every city in this nation.
Firt Pelosi now Judge Sotomayor both have been called everything but a child of God.
Women are not going to lay down and let this GOP/Republican Party walk over us not ever again.
Women in The Republican Party should be ashamed to support men who treat them like dirt, yes I said it dirt.
Republicans have demonstrated over and over again that they think Women are less qualified than men and just less of a person than a man
Well no more we are standing tall for Pelosi and Sotomayor
Republican Days of Trashing American Women are Over.
President is the only one who had the courage to pass the women's Equal Pay Bill Honoring Women, yes Honoring Women
We stuck with him in the election and we are sticking with him for the next 8 years.
He continually proves that he respect All Women and is conting
to give us Respect for our qualifications and our expertise and for the jobs open to Men because we are qualified.
Newt Gingrich can go to hell, he's an idiot, Pat Buchanan, Karl Rove and Cheney can follow him there. The GOP should be on the same train because they all disrespect women.
We are not racists, we are qualified, work hard, and earn all that we are given and those dollars that have been taken away from our families for centuries.
No More.

Dear Eva...you speak like a woman that lives in the middle east under the King of Bilderberg Bush-Obama...Abdullah! We don't have Sharia Law...here...yet! Women have many opportunities to make it here in America and do! Marie Antoinette Pelosi is a left loon...she is crazy and doesn't deserve to be where she is...she is only there because she is a woman! As to Sotomayor...she is a ultra-liberal leftist and if you are going to march for a women like that...you will be marching alone! She was only put in that position because she is a woman and a Puerto Rican! So give it up...Eva...there are plenty of American women that deserve your admiration...these two don't!....JUST ANOTHER PATHETIC DAY IN THE 'REIGN OF BARRY HUSSEIN' AND HIS WORSHIPFUL WOMEN CRAWLING AT HIS FEET TO JUST TOUCH HIM...WHILE HE FOLLOWS THE BILDERBERG AGENDA TO TAKE AMERICA DOWN ONE BANK, ONE CAR COMPANY, ONE BIG SPENDING BILL, ONE 401K AND NOW ONE ULTRA-LIBERAL BIGOTED, RACIST APPOINTEE TO THE COURT TO TRY AND DESTROY THE CONSTITUTION!

Eileen
Unfortunately you are the one that needs serious help because you have bought into the Republican constant disrespect for women.
Republicans refused to give you equal pay and you are ok with that, any women that's in a position of power they are calling names that are sorely disresprecful to all women
You are brain washed by the Republican party and I feel sorry for you
I could care less about either party but I do care about women being respected and treated fairley, and the party that does that earns my respect
The Republican party has not done that
Name on issue relative to women that they have chanpioned?
You can't because there are none.
You appear to be jealous of these women but rather should be proud and supportive of the sisterhood.
Good sailing because living your life accepting crumbs that are left by Republican men is no way to live
Name women in power positions in the party you can't becaue all those positions are held by Republican White Men
Good Luck!

Republicans don't want a Truth Commission that will find out ALL who were responsible for the Torture Heresy. They only want to go after Pelosi (the Democrat).
Typical.
For them, a President who lied under oath about having sex outside marriage is more abominable than a President who lied about the urgent need to go to war against Iraq, who lied and said that no American citizens would be electronically spied on without a warrant, and who repeatedly stated that America doesn't torture. What was important to them was that one was a Democrat and the other a Republican. These are the so-called "moral values" of Republicans.

Eileen's post is downright sad. The disrespect toward our president is flat out racist and Hispanics like myself see and hear what the GOP and it's Klan like members are saying. As far as Pelosi goes she is a decent lady but did not do her job when it came to the war as far as I am concerned. These are not the kind of democrats we need. I don't care about their color or gender we just need democrats that are going to take a stand and stop playing political games. The people from the middle left on want action not words.

If you want "actions not words", then act. If you want words, look to a politician. That's the difference between the left and the right my friend. When Righties want something we go out and do it for ourselves, lefties whine that someone else hasn't done it for them yet.
It's empowering to be on the right, it's frustrating to be on the left b/c politicians break your trust ("gee, but I thought this one was different!")
What color and gender am I? WHO CARES?!

Carolyn wrote: "Republicans don't want a Truth Commission that will find out ALL who were responsible for the Torture Heresy." The most vocal critics of the Truth Commision" seem to be democrats. There is a battle in the dem party over the Truth Commision. Some republicans are saying bring it on, lets put all the cards on the table and see exactly who knew what, and when. Many democrats like Harry Reid are not so eager. There is NOTHING stopping the democrats who control both houses of congress from having the hearings. The democrats are the ones stopping the hearings. Could it be that many top dems do not want their constituents knowing that they backed Bush?

I was afraid that the GOP was giving up on investigations about what Pelosi said about her role in water boarding. If she gets away with this, the GOP will loose all future elections, and the US will become a socialist state, with no way back.

"If you want actions not words..." Really? There's no grass roots on the left? Obama just got elected out of the blue. Hmmm. I think the argument that all conservatives are good and all liberals are bad is so passe -- it's so 80's and 90's. Plus, what does it say about you when you're the only one bringing up the race issue. It's the same argument that the GOP uses time and time again -- calling everyone who is not white racists. the GOP is dying -- just preaching to it's dwindling choir.

Wow! The Liberal Loons are out again with their lies: Carolyn, Pres Bush did NOT lie about WMD; that LiberalLie has been crushed as even the NYT acknowledged that the Buhs Admin worked with the same info that our Foreign Relns committee (who approved the war) had and that the whole world had. And that is that Hussein very truly DID have WMD. What we DO know is that Congress did not READ the info before voting, but then?par for the course.
?Republicans don?t want a Truth Commission????!! Hello! The Republicans filed the request for it (D?oh!), The Dems shot it down. (Ooops)
Eileen, stop drinking the kool aid. Where has the Dem Party done anything for women? The Republicans ? you may remember ? ran a female VP candidate last election, while the Dems trashed the female candidate they refused to support!! President Bush named many women to prominent positions in his cabinet and admin; you just don?t recognize them as women because they don?t wear your LibLies hat. Some of America?s strongest women governors are Republicans, none are Dems!
I could name ProLife as a Women?s Issue that Rs have championed. Again, don?t drink the KoolAid. Being able to murder your own baby is NOT feminine empowerment ? in any universe! You have bought the feminist hag theology of the sixties: ?women?s empowerment comes from being just like a man ? right down to the ultimate denial of your biology: the irrelevance of your uterus.? Don?t be stupid. Stand up for your true feminine power and destiny. Don?t buy the false logic that abortion is somehow making you a better woman!

THIS BIMBO IS A PROBLEM, BUT THE GREATEST OF ALL, THE BIGGEST PROBLEM IS ACORN, BETTER GET INTERESTED. ACORN IS OBAMA'S CONSTITUENT AND HE GAVE THEM 89K. HE ALSO REPRESENTED THEM AGAINST CITIBANK AND WON, FOR SUB PRIME LOANS, 1999 THE GROUND FLOOR.
